We have an iMac. The OS is 10.6.8. Firefox is 25 and says it is up to date. In the past few days it now crashes after about 30 seconds to one minute of being opened. I tried to post the error message below but it has 130,954 characters and the limit is 10,000

We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing when you open it. Please do the following to give us crash IDs that will help us understand more about the crash.

  1. (OS X 10.6 or previous) Click the Finder icon in the dock. Your home folder will be selected. In the right side of the window, click the Library folder to open it. Then open the "Application Support" folder, the "Firefox" folder, the "Crash Reports" folder and finally the "submitted" folder.
    (OS X 10.7 or above) Click the Finder icon in the dock. On the menu bar, click the Go menu, hold down the option or alt key and select Library. A window will open containing your Library folder. Then open the "Application Support" folder, the "Firefox" folder, the "Crash Reports" folder and finally the "submitted" folder.
  2. Open the 5 most recent files with a text editor and copy the IDs.
  3. Paste each ID with bp- into the reply window on the forums.

Thanks in advance!

I entered the crash reports on the thread but I received another email to my account with the same reply. Is there some additional information that I should submit? Thank you DoubleA

I know it's been a while but I am still waiting to hear how to keep firefox from crashing. It seems like it crashes whenever i open a google product like G Mail, which I do all the time. Please advise. doubleA
